Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X Will Use Satellite Images

I don’t even think I can name all of the games coming out that have caught my eye. There’s just so many I want to try (or buy) and Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X is one of those. UbiSoft has now stated that the game will have photo realistic satellite images from GeoEye’s IKONOS satellite. Oh man, that sounds good.

“High-resolution satellite imaging is moving from the black world of intelligence to the white world of commerce and Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X will bring that reality to gamers,” said Mark Brender, vice president, corporate communications and marketing at GeoEye.

“With video game graphics becoming more realistic, the use of high-quality photographic ground textures in H.A.W.X adds true photo-realism to the air combat experience.”

Now to see how it’s all going to come together with the flying controls, etc is going to be interesting. One thing of note, I’ve only played one bad Tom Clancy game (Ghost Recon 4 I believe) so I’ll be up checking this one for sure.
